2013-2014 Dodge Viper SRT










The 2014 Dodge Viper SRT is the fifth generation of the Dodge Viper series, it was first unveiled at the 2012 New York Auto show in April. The 2014 Dodge Viper SRT was designed by Scott Krugger in 2010. The Dodge Viper SRT is a 2-door coupe luxury sports car. The engine of the SRT is an all aluminum 512.6 cu in 8.4 L Viper V10 that produces 640bhp at 6150 rpm, as for the transmission has a Tremec TR6060 six-speed manual transmission. The brakes of the SRT include an 4-channel anti-lock system with 4-psiston Brembo brakes with fixed aluminum calipers. And the tires are Pirelli P Zero rated tires. The interior of the SRT includes hand stitched leather upholstery on the seats,doors,center console. The SRT comes with Sabelt racing seats with a Kevlar and fiber glass shell. The SRT has a top speed of 205 mph and can accelerate from 0-60 in just 2.9 seconds.  At the 2013 New York International Auto Show the Dodge Viper SRT TA was unveiled as a $16,000 limited addition option package for the SRT. The TA stands for Time Attack, and the package consisted of the Advanced Aerodynamic package. I like this car because it is one of the few American exotic sports cars that exist.The Viper's have always had that wild look to them but over the years Dodge has learned on how to refine it into a sleeker look.

2012-2014 Aston Martin Vanquish



  The Aston Martin Vanquish is a Grand Tourer made by the British car maker Aston Martin.The Vanquish was originally released as a concept car known as the Project Am310 Concept in 2012 at the Concorso 'D Eleganza in the Villa D' Este of Lake Como Italy. Most of the design of the Aston  Martin Vanquish was inspired from the Aston Martin One-77. The Aston Martin Vanquish is built and assembled in Gaydon, England. The body style of the Vanquish has the option of a 2-door coupe or a 2-door roadster with a soft top convertible. And the layout of the Vanquish is a front mid-engine with rear wheel drive, and the platform is the same platform that was used on Aston Martin One-77 which was the VH Generation4. As for the engine and transmission the Aston Martin has a 5.9L 362 cu in V12 that produces 566 hp with a top speed of 183mph. And the transmission is a rear-mid mounted, six-speed Touchtronic2 automatic. The Aston Martin Vanquish can accelerate from 0-60mph in 4.1 seconds. I like the Aston Martin in general as a car making company because the cars that they make are breath taking and beautiful. But they also delivery in the way they preform and work as well as they look.
